Hi Mondriaan,

To open a spreadsheet automatically at startup, do this:

  1. Search for Task Scheduler and open it.
  2. Go to Action > Create Task and give a name to the task.
  3. Select the Triggers tab > New. In "Begin the task", choose At log on > Ok.
  4. Select the Actions tab > New. In "Action", choose Start a program.
  5. In "Program/script", give the path to your spreadsheet program executable. Here's an example if you're using OpenOffice: "C:\Program Files (x86)\OpenOffice 4\program\scalc.exe"
  6. Then, in "Add arguments", provide the path to your spreadsheet document. Example: "C:\Users\YourName\Documents\Spreadsheet.sxc"
  7. Click Ok and save the task.


Hope that helps.
